Joe Montana Is Not A Fan Of The 49ers Leaving San Francisco Next Season

Joe
Montana is known for everything great about the San Francisco 49ers
franchise. One mention of his name or site of his throwback jersey is
sure to conjure up memories of super bowl championships in San
Francisco. He is a huge part of the 49ers franchise and his opinion
matters and he is not a fan of the teams move to Santa Clara next
season.Located
roughly about 40 miles south from San Francisco the Niners name
geographically won't be accurate as of next season. The former super
bowl champion recently spoke out against the move stating that San
Fran leaders made a “terrible effort” at keeping the team in the
city. He also said that the team missed an opportunity to build a
downtown state of the art facility so that the 49ers can thrive like
bay area counterparts like the Golden State Warriors who are set to
move into a new downtown arena and the San Francisco Giants who
already are doing great at AT&T Park.

Levi's
Stadium in Santa Clara will seat 68,500 people and will host the
super bowl in 2016. One interesting fact about the seating
arrangement at Levi's Stadium is that nearly 66% of the seats will be
in the lower bowl which will be one of the largest in the NFL. The
Santa Clara based stadium will be a huge face lift for a franchise
that has been playing in a dump for a long time.
